A Way Out - Second Player Unable to Join

I recently bought and installed A Way Out on my laptop and I cannot get a second controller to work. It will say Player One is mouse and keyboard, Player Two press A to join, but no buttons on the PS4 controller will allow it to join?? I am trying to play with my boyfriend on the same computer. Controller will work as player one as well, can move the mouse with it and click stuff but cannot join as player 2. We've tried with 2 controllers connected as well, as that's how we would prefer to play it but no matter what cannot join as player 2. It looks so fun and we really want to play, please help!!!!

  • Spent over 25 minutes live on stream just trying to start this game and couldn't get past the the screen where player 2 presses 'A' to join.

    My PS4 and Switch Pro controllers that work for every other game, don't work in this game for some reason.

    I got the game through Xbox game pass and have tried opening it through EA app and through Steam but I can't get past the 'Join' screen.

    ^watch us try to play for 25 minutes ^

  • Experiencing the same problem but somehow EA help doesn't know this problem exists. lol

    wasted so much trying to just start playing this game.

    Terrible experience.

    Even beta games like Skater XL immediately recognize both my Switch Pro controllers, and my PS4 controllers with no delay or setup necessary so I know it has nothing to do with my computer, the controllers, or anything besides this game or EA app.
